5.0 out of 5 stars Good Addition to the Series, 2006/1/8

By	Suzanne Mesecke - See all my reviews

I like the variety this series is beginning to show. There are more magical creatures added than in the last two books, and the fairies have a somewhat creepy forest adventure this time. It's just a little dark and scary because the Spirit of Sorrow spreads darkness and sorrow spells. Of course the fairies triumph, just like in their previous adventures, and save all laughter in the world. It's nice that little girls are shown to make such a difference in the world with their deeds. These are good role-model girls because they seem to care more about things like nature and simple games and solving problems than they do about TV. And they are really too young to worry about boys yet. It seem the most this author is including in the books is some blushing, pranks, and note writing between the brownies and fairies. That is refreshingly innocent and reminds me of my own interactions with boys when I was a small girl, put a smile on my face. I have recently discovered the Fairy Chronicles website with what seems like a whole list of ebooks relating to this series, and I am looking forward to reading about more of the fairies' adventures. The list looks interesting so far. I hope the author keeps going because this is pretty wholesome stuff and I think our world needs that.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Fairy Tale, 2006/9/4

By	F. Hampe - See all my reviews

I love fairy tales and this one is really special. The tale is about a young girls who is a fairy going on a fairy mission to save all laughter in the world. The Shell of Laughter produces laughter and it has been stolen. Thistle, whose girl name is Grace, sets out with her friends to find the Spirit of Sorrow to recover the Shell. The girls get help from an elf and his hedgehog pet, and a leprechaun, along with a few others. This is a fairly short fairy tale but it is very engaging. I really enjoyed it, even as an adult. There is something refreshing and innocent about it, and it remindes me of the children's books I read growing up.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Make-Up of Laughter, 2005/12/19

By	Risa Blevins - See all my reviews

One of my favorite parts of this book is the description of what laughter is made of: things like tickle feathers, the sound of puppies barking, birdsong, wind chimes, jokes, Christmas snow and buried treasure. I also love the fact that Yin Yang balance is stressed in this story. My daughter loved the Christmas fairy circle and the brief unicorn visit to the fairies in the apple orchard. How laughter is spread around the world is also very interesting. My daughter actually asked questions about the jet stream, the chinook and zephyrs. She also wanted to know about Iceland, Finland and Norway. This book has made her want to learn things, and I have not had that kind of a response from her with many other books she has read. We have ordered an Atlas because of this book and looked up things in Encarta about the winds. However, this was mostly just a fun read for her because it was a good story.
